Chicago.
CHICAGO, December 23.-The European
war talk induced free buying of wheat this
morning and May opened fc higher at Sc,
5ut enormous sales by local house broke
it to Sllc during the first hour. When
Liverpool reported wheat higher it had a
bullish effect, and the option went to
size, and held firm around that figure
for long time. The trading was fair.
